It’s nice to get beauty advice from a friend, but what about those problems that no one talks about? Is it a usual occurrence for you to get makeup on your clothes before you leave the house? It has happened to the best of us. Do you struggle to remove deodorant stains from clothes? Unfortunately, that’s a common one too. Do you have heels you’ve been avoiding because you don’t want blisters? You’re not the only one. Do you sweat your makeup off pretty easily? There’s a way to prevent that. Are you tired of editing your shiny forehead out of photos? There’s a product to remove the oil in person (before snapping pics) that won’t mess up your makeup.
Oh, and it’s summer now, which means that chafing is all too real, especially for the inner thighs, underneath your boobs, or under your arms. What about butt sweat or butt acne? Yeah, those things happen. There are so many problems like these that we all have, but some of us don’t love talking about. If these issues sound relatable, then keep on scrolling to find out about products that really work.
The Problem- Getting Makeup on Your Clothes; The Fix- Makeup Protector Hood
You could get dressed and then put on your makeup, taking the risk that it will end up on your outfit. Or you can do your makeup before putting clothes on, taking the risk that you’ll get makeup on your clothes when you put on a top or a dress. Neither strategy is ideal which is why you need a makeup protector hood. Yes, it looks pretty silly, but it’s such a cool hack. Put on your makeup as per usual. Then, put on the makeup hood before you pull a sweater over your head. Once you’re dressed, unzip the hood, and you’ve successfully avoided getting makeup on your clothes.
And, if you are someone who applies makeup down the neck and into the chest, this makeup hood covers that area too.

It’s antibacterial, moisturizing, and repairing. Once you clear that skin up, you can keep applying this lotion as a preventative treatment.
Some Amazon customers say this is a “miracle product.” One elaborated, “I will break out from wearing workout leggings for too long. Or tight clothing in general! I recently moved to a beach city and I am constantly wearing a bathing suit, I’ve been SO self conscious about my butt that some days I wouldn’t even want to go to the beach or wear my super cute bikinis because of my butt breakouts, so I would wear my more covered bathing suits. This has been a saving grace.”
Another shared, “I am truly satisfied with how this product works on Butt acne. I am 51 and have always said, ‘Better there then on my face’ but seriously who wants this at 51. I have been overjoyed with the results.”
